This document provides a lesson on distinguishing between parameters and statistics. It discusses that parameters describe entire populations while statistics describe samples. Students will do learning activities in stations to understand the concepts and create a comparison table. Examples are given to practice identifying parameters and statistics. The lesson emphasizes that parameters are fixed quantities for a population while statistics are variable measures for samples. Students must create a presentation explaining the key differences between parameters and statistics with examples.

2. Objectives
distinguishes
between parameter
and statistic.
(M11/12SP-IIId-3)

3. At the end of the lesson, you
should be able to:
a. distinguishes between parameter and
statistic.
b. create your own definition of parameter
and statistics;
c. perform and cooperate with group mates
in doing activities related to parameter and
statistic;
d. relate importance of parameters and
statistics in our lives.

4. Presentation of the Lesson

5. Learning Stations
You will be grouped into three and
prepare 1 whole paper. Each group will be
assigned to every station. When I say “go”
and you will proceed to the next station.
Then, you will take note of the concepts
learned in each station; tasks are given as
well . At the end of the activity, you will
create a comparison table (write it in
manila paper) and present it to the class.
(20 minutes)

6. Learning Stations
Station 1: Picture Analysis
Station 2:Task Cards
Station 3: Interaction:
AVideo Presentation

8. Discussion

9. Parameter and Statistic
Population-The totality of subjects
(people, animals or objects) under
consideration.
Sample-The portion chosen from a
population.
Parameter- the measurement or
quantity that describes the population.
Statistic (Sample Statistic)- the
measurement or quantity that describe a
sample

10. BASIS FOR
COMPARISON
STATISTIC PARAMETER
Meaning Statistic is a
measure which
describes a
fraction of
population.
Parameter
refers to a
measure which
describes
population.

11. Practice exercise

12. 1. In order to test the effect of the
new drug to humans, 20 patients
were given the dose. After a
minute, it was found out that the
body temperature in average,
decreased by 2 oC. Answer the ff:
a. Are the 20 patients mentioned
above population or sample?
b. Is the 2 oC decrease in the body
temperature considered parameter
or statistic?

13. Answer/Solution:
a. The 20 patients taken are
considered sample.
b. Since the measurement 2 oC
refers to the average decrease of
the 20 patients (sample), it is
therefore considered statistic.

14. 2. A researcher wants to know
the average weight of females
aged 22 years or older in Iloilo
City.The researcher obtains the
average weight of 54 kg, from a
random sample of 40 females.
Describe the given quantity as
parameter or statistic.

15. Answer/Solution:
In the given situation, the
statistics are the average weight
of 54 kg, calculated from a simple
random sample of 40 females in
Iloilo City while the parameter is
the mean weight of all females
aged 22 years or older.

16. Real-life Examples/ situations

17. A statistic is a measure based on a
sample.
A parameter is a measure of an
entire population.
Example of parameter:The average
amount of left handed people in
Bo. Obrero, Lapuz.
Example of Statistic:The average
amount of left handed people in Bo
Obrero National High School.

18. Let’s generalize…

19. 1. How will you compare or
distinguish parameter from
statistic?
2. Cite real life situations or
examples related to parameter
and statistic..

20. Direction: Find a pair and create a concept
map on how mastered the lesson.
